"You'll never be good enough. You are garbage," Justin Long never questioned those messages that his parents taught him during his childhood. But when he reached a point that alcohol no longer numbed the pain, he knew he needed to make some changes. And if he can do it, so can you.

Justin is an author, business owner, and the host of the podcast Straight from the Horse Doctor’s Mouth. You can reach Justin at his website https://jboydlong.com.

Some of the highlights Justin shares:
I am able to change the way I feel about myself
Alcoholism is often a sign of a deeper problem
Getting sober
I hated myself
Feeling like you're not good enough and no one loves you
Internalizing lessons from our parents and accepting them as our identity
Inheriting beliefs from our parents
Learning who we really are
Getting to a place of freedom rather than living in fear of what other people will think
I'm never going to get my dad's approval so it's time to stop trying
My value doesn't come from my parent's perception of me
How trauma therapy and EMDR changed my life
Learning to forgive myself
Getting over the fear of the unknown
Becoming self aware
Learning who I am and what I like
It's worth it
And more
